IU 1v1 (15 mins)

How the activity works:

-Red passes the ball to blue. Blue players are now on offense and try to score in red's goal. If red wins the ball, they can try to score in blue's goal. If there is a goal or the ball goes out of bounds, the players switch lines.

Coaching points:

-Encourage use of skill moves

-Attack with speed

-Good first touch when recieveing the ball

-Firm pass across to opponent

-Defender in an athletic- side on- position

-Defenders curve their run to force the ball outside

-Ask players to plan what they are going to do when in line (pick a move)

Create a competitive environment by keeping score! You can also add a time limit to score.

Breakaway Finishing (10 mins)

Breakaway Finishing:

Start with 2 lines. 1 line a few yards in front of the other. the player in black will play through balls in front of the players in red and they will have to chase it down and score against the keeper. The players in blue are trying to chase the players in red to add pressure and make the situation game-like

Progression:

can make the player in black toss in bouncing through balls to work on volleys and/or receiving out of the air

Coaching Points:

-Focus on weight of the through ball pass (coach can be passer to make drill easier)

-Going with speed and being in control of the ball

-composure in front of goal and picking out corners

-power finish vs. finesse
